The scum bag

Abstract

Novel for 14+
Self-conscious, studious Julia is bowled over by the arrival of Peter Groves, the Greek God, known to all his friends as Ami. He’s a real catch and Julia seems to be the one reeling him in. With a little bit of help from her scatty, wannabe teenager, Auntie Vee, she even seems to be doing better than her supercool friend Kate who never has a problem attracting boys.
Then she loses her nerve.
Even so, whatever she does, she can’t get away from how much she fancies Ami.
So there are fights, tears, pantomime rehearsals…. then things begin to change.
